King Charles Urged to Meet Epstein Victims on US Visit Congressman Ro Khanna said King Charles III should meet Jeffrey Epstein victims during a State Visit to America. King Charles III has been urged to meet survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse during his expected state visit to the United States in April, in a letter from Democratic California Representative Ro Khanna. Buckingham Palace has been actively planning a formal visit by Charles to America, including to Washington, D.C., to meet President Donald Trump, at the end of April, though nothing has yet been confirmed., which reads:"As author of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, I respectfully ask that you privately meet with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s and Ghislaine Maxwell’s abuse, so they may speak to you directly about the ways powerful individuals and institutions failed them. Survivors want this meeting."Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor, the king's brother who was stripped of his royal titles in 2025 and arrested earlier this year on suspicion of misconduct in public office, has been at the center of renewed scrutiny over his association with Epstein. Charles said he would be willing to co-operate in an investigation launched by Thames Valley Police after his brother's arrest. Mountbatten-Windsor has always denied Epstein-related wrongdoing. Meanwhile, Khanna and members of the House Oversight Committee requested Mountbatten-Windsor's testimony about Epstein but have received no reply.Khanna's letter read:"Epstein’s network had significant ties to the United Kingdom through Ghislaine Maxwell, through Epstein’s relationships with British public figures, and through the social and political circles in which he operated. These connections raise broader questions about how Epstein was able to maintain influence, credibility, and protection across borders for so long. "Additionally, members of Congress have sought testimony from both Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor and Peter Mandelson regarding their respective ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor did not respond. "Peter Mandelson was also asked to appear before the Oversight Committee regarding his reported ties to Epstein and questions about whether sensitive information may have been shared improperly. He declined to cooperate, citing the existence of a criminal investigation. In both cases, Congress was unable to secure their cooperation or testimony. "A meeting with survivors would provide an opportunity to identify any additional information British institutions and individuals may be able to share and open a dialogue about whether there will be a full accounting of how Epstein’s and Maxwell’s network operated in the United Kingdom. It would also ensure that survivors are heard directly and that these matters are addressed with transparency, seriousness, and accountability."Newsweek’s reporters and editors used Martyn, our AI assistant, to help produce this story.
